Halloween is coming up, and that means it’s almost time for trick-or-treating. But what about brick-or-treating?
Brick-or-treating is something you can only do at LEGOLAND theme park in Carlsbad, California. It is something you can do at their Halloween event, appropriately called Brick or Treat. This takes place on Saturdays and Sundays.
So what happens during Brick-or-Treat? I’m about to tell you about some of the fun festivities. And then I’ll tell you guys how you can save money on tickets!
Brick-or-Treat
As I said before, this is the one place to go to Brick-or-Treat. And truthfully, it is just trick-or-treating.
But first of all, trick-or-treating is awesome. So that is nothing to sniff at.
And secondly, it’s pretty neat to be able to trick-or-treat in a theme park. This makes it a really safe place to trick-or-treat.
